20250201- Third Stream — Consideration of nāma-bhajana according to the eligibility for prema part 6

Sa It Ra. So how many devotees here from Kolkata want to achieve Krishna premier dance gradually.

In our Bhakti yoga practice.

So he describes how we advance gradually in our Bhakti yoga practice.

And each step is a step of Krishna raga.

So each step is a step of Krishna Prem. Right.

So as rush like here.

So first you have to hear that means you have to have faith. And then you would like to associate with devotees. Oh.

Start to practice devotional service.

And then you start to practice devotional service. That's all. Bhajana Kriya.

Usually takes initiation in this stage.

Some usually takes initiation.

Diksha Lea.

Even at this stage one can give blessings.

Then even at this stage one can give out blessings.

Ajurvat on the strengthen the faith someone.

So that Ashirvat would strengthen the faith of someone.

Then one jodri gets rid of the bad habits.

And then gradually one gets rid of his bad habit. That's called Anarta Nivruti.

Restaurant has most of the great video very study.

So and then when most of one's anarthas is freed then one becomes steady in devotional service. That steadfastness is called Nishta. And then when the nishta gets more concentrated then it becomes ruchi which means sweet taste one wonderful relishment taste.

Wonderful taste.

A wonderful taste.

More advanced than ruchi.

And then one gets more advanced. It's called ruchi.

You are very attached to Krishna.

You become very attached to Krishna's service.

This might take years.

This may. This may take so this. So this may take years to achieve that. Any years. 10, 20, 30.

And the disaster.

If you are very enthusiastic, you can achieve it quicker. I see that they are very enthusiastic. They are very eager.

After the attachment stage, Bhava stage or the Rati stage.

After the attachment stage one rises to Bhava stage or Rati stage.

Bhab or Rati Kerp.

This stage is like preliminary Prema. When one becomes more focused on Krishna.

Then it turns into premises.

We want all the devotees to achieve Raji and Prem.

So we want all the devotees to achieve rati and premiere. So today we will read from the verse Srimad Bhagavatam 15.18. Persons who are actually intelligent, persons who are actually intelligent and philosophically inclined should endeavor only for that purposeful and which is not obtainable even by wandering from the topmost planet Brahmaloka down to the lowest planet Patala. As far as happiness derived from sense enjoyment is concerned, derived from sense enjoyment is concerned, it can be obtained automatically in the course of Time. Just as in course of time, we obtain miseries even though we do not desire them.

Translate Chinese, Russian, Hindi. How the devotees hear the language? I don't know.

How the devotees hear the language?

I don't know.

I see them translating.

How are the devotees hear the language? I see them translating. Is it audible? Right now look, we obtain miseries even though we don't desire them. Have any of you ever obtained this? As any of you have obtained, I can do sign language repetition. Yeah. Okay. Has any of you has obtained miseries? It comes automatically.

No one wants Duka.

No one wants Dukkha. Based on the karma we.

Got.

In the same way we get Sukh, the material Sukha and Dukkha. It's temporary. They come and or Jatahe.

Doing Bhakti.

Yoga.

Kind of happiness never goes.

By doing Bhakti Yoga we get a kind of happiness which would never go.

And you know, Bhagavad was in the class one time and he was telling all the devotees to Bhakti Yoga.

So Prabhupada was giving class one time and he was telling the devotees to do Bhakti Yoga.

Class.

But then one person stood up and he said.

And then one person stood up and he said.

Isn'T it better we go and enjoy life, all the material happiness?

And he said, isn't it better we go and enjoy material life and then come back and do devotional service?

And said in that case pigs.

So then Prabhupada turned to her team and said in that case pigs would be the best devotees.

They enjoy material life.

They enjoy material life. They eat. Stewart.

Mistaken idea is that I can enjoy and material life.

People have a mistake. People have a mistaken idea that I can enjoy this material world.

Material misery.

So actually the material happiness is very short lived. Short lived. And there is also material miseries.

Holy name Krishna is not different from Krishna.

The Holy Name of Krishna is not different from Krishna. Krishna. Okay, this would be the last one. Okay. The Holy Name is transcendental. And the supreme object of the Holy Name is transcendental. And the supreme object of worship. The Holy Name is transcendental. There is no knowledge like the Holy Name. No vow like the Holy Name. No meditation like the Holy Name. No result like the Holy Name. No renunciation like the Holy Name. No sense control like the Holy Name. No piety like the Holy Name. No gold like the Holy Name anywhere. The Holy Name is the supreme liberation. The Holy Name is the supreme destination. The Holy Name is supreme peace. The Holy Name is supreme abode. The Holy Name is supreme devotion. The Holy Name is supreme intelligence. The Holy Name is supreme love. The Holy Name is supreme memory. Know this for certain. The Holy Name is the cause of life. The Holy Name is the Lord of living entity. The Holy Name is the supreme object of worship. The Holy Name is the Supreme Guru.

Qualifies. Hari Nom.

So this paragraph glorifies the Harinam in a superb way.

Priceless instructions. He should always chant holiday.

So receiving these priceless instructions we should always chant the Holy Name. So people went to Mahalkumba. It's a very glorious oh spectacle.

I went there with a lot on two occasions.

So I went there with Srila Prabhupada in two occasions.

Actually Iran doesn't chant the holiday. They don't get the real validation.

But if one actually doesn't chant the Holy Name then you don't get the real benediction.

This chanting of the Holy Name.

So this chanting of the Holy Name in this Kali Yuga is the recommended process.

And Saturday mornings.

So in future we'll have some darshan on Saturday mornings we give it to Far east.

So that in the evening here in the middle of Europe.

So we'll work on some systems so that in the evening we can do with Europe and UK because four and.

A half, five and a half hours.

Behind us because they are four and a half or five and a half hours behind us. So in the morning we see Australia, Malaysia and other places who are a hate because.

You know that turn hours ahead of us.

So because Perth and Malaysia, places like this, they are two and a half hours ahead of us.

Five and a half.

If it is five here, it's seven and a half over there. And Melbourne and Sydney, they are hours ahead. Maybe five and a half hours. I think we'll make some system. Five and a half, right.

Calcutta.

India. So Kolkata, India is the same time zone. Okay, just tell.

People are going on the road here.

So people, those who come on the roof here, the same time zone.

Time zone.
